Forwarded Call
Notification
Thank you
for using our app, we’re trying hard to deliver the best services to meet your
needs and get your satisfaction.
Please read
this help to learn how to setup the app and how to use it.
App Setup
Starting
from version 5.0 the app has two working modes, you can try the mode that works
for your mobile. If you have an older version already installed and working
fine on your mobile and updated to version 5.0 you may want to switch directly
to Mode2.
The app needs to run in the background in order to detect forwarded calls,
so it’s important to open the app info (usually by long clicking the app icon)
and allow background services, enable autostart and
exclude the app from battery saver restrictions or any other similar setting
depending on your device model or brand.
Also the app
may not be compatible with VoLTE, so you may
have to switch to regular GSM connection, you can do that by going to
Settings->Connections->Mobile networks then uncheck VoLTE.
Mode1
Setup:
Mode1
is a lot easier to set up so the app will start with it (no need for FCNTool). It will take advantage of the accessibility
services special tools to detect the forwarded calls by catching the default
notification message that your mobile usually shows when receiving forwarded
calls. So this mode will not work if your mobile not showing any default
notification message when receiving forwarded calls at all (many phones
by default show this notification message when receiving a forwarded call but
it disappears quickly after about 2 seconds), if this is the case you can later
switch to Mode2.
To setup the app in Mode1 you only have to enable the Forwarded Call
Notification service in Accessibility menu on your mobile settings. The app
will automatically open the Accessibility settings page and ask you to enable
the service. (You can also manually access the Accessibility setting page from
Settings -> Device -> Accessibility or search for it in your mobile
settings.)
Mode2
Setup:
Mode2 is a
bit harder to set up, anyway you only need to switch to Mode2 if Mode1 didn’t
work for you. Mode2 will try to read the internal mobile log to detect
forwarded calls.

Debugging on your mobile: Android Settings -> Developer options ->

How it works
Once
you install the app and complete the setup process, a background service will work
permanently to intercept the forwarded calls.
When
receiving a forwarded call a Notification will be shown in the
notification bar on the top of the screen, and a “Forwarded Call..” message is shown on the dialer screen.
DISCLAIMER
The
setup process is completely safe and is intended to give the app the needed
permission to work (Read_Log permission / Enable
Accessibility service).
